Abstract

The motor-powered depilatory device (10) for removing skin hair is provided in a compact, efficient, hand-held unit, based on the operation of an axially rotatable hair-plucking element (30) provided as a plurality of discs (36) adjacently coupled in column form. By provision of a central spine comprising a pre-tensioned spring (41), the discs (36 ) are maintained adjacent one another under tension, while the column is bendable. When rotated axially at one end, the hair-plucking element (30) transfers the rotation via rotational coupling of the adjacent discs (36) in the column. Thus, even if the column is bent in an arched configuration, the rotational motion is transferred across its entire length. Preferably, the rotationally-coupled discs (36) are made of relatively rigid plastic material, and are mechanically coupled by a set of tab-­ like projections (38) on each disc surface, which engage matching recesses in adjacent discs (36). Alternatively, adjacent discs (36) are made of a soft material with a high friction coefficient and are rotationally coupled by friction between them. The arched configuration of the hair-plucking element (30) provides spaces (42) between adjacent discs (36) on a convex side, and hair trapped in these spaces (42) is plucked when they close upon rotation of the hair-plucking element (30) toward its concave side.
